QUOTE(AlamakLor @ Dec 31 2006, 08:05 AM) I'm not sure about plasma, I've never really looked into plasma due to the phosphor burning issue...which is going to be inevitable since not many movies are 16:9 The issue is a problem when u continuously watch a movie with a logo for a pro-longed period of time. If u switch on and off or sticking to particular channel for less than 5 hrs, i dont think it will be a problem. It has employed the 'picture shift' in it to minimise the problem. A friend of mine who owns Pioneer plasma doesnt has a problem with this after 3 years. |

New plasma models have 'picture shift' being integrated in it to minimise the burn-in effect.

Yes, it is not advisable to use plasma for gaming. But, my friend didnt bother abt it. He is playing his PS2 via plasma for more than 2 yrs. No prob. Or maybe he is lucky.

but, the picture will be stretched to fill the screen, which I find it quite irritating. Astro does have this so-called 'wide' setting for the aspect ratio. However, this is only meant for 'future' upgrades.

PQ wise, of course LG is only moderate if to compare to those more well-known brands. You mean the latest Panasonic PV70 plasma?

QUOTE(kaichia @ Jun 1 2007, 03:30 PM) Ok bro, will consider LG plasma since it's about 1k cheaper. Does burn in easier to happen during your usage? Currently 42" LG plasma got model 42PC1R, 42PC3RV and time machine 42PC1RR.  Burn-in is not so easy to happen unless you are watching for long hours everyday, which is not really possible. If you interested in LG, PM me. Btw, I find Pana PV70 PQ is quite good even on Astro signal. Tried Wah Lai Toi using the 'stretch mode'. juz as found in Sharp. Picture looks good. |

Good to hear that you finally bought it. The SD plasma really a bargain right now since the HD plasma price has dropped.  |
